Flo Rida

Sunshine State rapper

Flo Rida is the stage name of American rapper Tramar Lacel Dillard, known for party anthems like "Low" and "Right Round" that dominated pop radio in the late 2000s.

The name is a play on Florida, his home state, split into two words: Flo Rida featuring T-Pain.

His music emphasizes club-ready hooks over lyrical complexity.
